Fast computation of generic bivariate resultants

We prove that the resultant of two “sufficiently generic” bivariate polynomials over a finite field can be computed in quasi-linear expected time, using a randomized algorithm of Las Vegas type. A similar complexity bound is proved for the computation of the lexicographical Gröbner basis for the ideal generated by the two polynomials.     

In vitro biomolecular interaction studies and cytotoxic activities of copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes bearing ONS donor thiosemicarbazones

Among all the bio‐metals, zinc and copper derivatives of ONS donor thiosemicarbazone have aroused great interest because of their potential biological applications. Multisubstituted thiosemicarbazone ligand H₂dspt (3,5‐dichlorosalicylaldehyde‐N⁴‐phenylthiosemicarbazone) derived new ternary complexes like [Zn(dspt)(phen)]?DMF ( 1 ) and [Cu(dspt)(phen)]?DMF ( 2 ), and another thiosemicarbazone, H₂dsct (3,5‐dichlorosalicylaldehyde‐N⁴‐cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone), derived [Cu(dsct)(bipy)]?DMF ( 3 ). These complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis (CHNS), Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR), ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H‐NMR) spectra. The structures of the complexes were obtained by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 got crystallized in the monoclinic P2₁/c space group. The complexes showed interesting supramolecular interaction, which in turn stabilizes the complexes. The ground state electronic configurations of the complexes were studied using the B3LYP/LANL2DZ basis set, and ESP plots of complexes were investigated. The interaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT‐DNA) was studied using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic methods. A UV study of the interaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT‐DNA) has shown that the complexes can effectively bind to CT‐DNA, and [Cu(dspt)(phen)]·DMF ( 2 ) exhibited the highest binding constant to CT‐DNA (K_b = 3.7 × 10⁴). Fluorescence spectral studies also indicated that Complex 2 binds relatively stronger with CT DNA through intercalative mode, exhibiting higher binding constant (K_q = 4.7 × 10⁵). The DNA cleavage result showed that the complexes are capable of cleaving the DNA without the help of any external agent. Molecular docking studies were carried out to understand the binding of complexes with the molecular target DNA. Complex 2 exhibited the highest cytotoxicity against human breast cancer cell line MD‐MBA‐231 (IC₅₀ = 23.93 μg/mL) as compared to Complex 1 (IC₅₀ = 44.40 μg/mL) .     

基于计算机视觉技术的茶叶品质随机森林感官评价方法研究

为弥补茶叶品质感官审评存在的缺陷，利用计算机视觉技术对茶叶品质进行快速无损评价研究。以碧螺春绿茶为对象，依据专家感官审评结果，将茶样分成4个等级；采用中值滤波及拉普拉斯算子对茶样图像进行预处理，并提取预处理后的茶样图像的颜色特征和纹理特征以表征茶叶图像的外形特征，利用随机森林算法对茶叶外形特征属性进行重要性排序；筛选出重要性较大的特征及随机森林算法中最优的决策树棵数建立感官评价模型，并与建立的支持向量机(SVM)模型性能相比较。结果表明：色调均值、色调标准差、绿体均值、平均灰度级、饱和度均值、红体均值、饱和度标准差、亮度均值、一致性等9个特征属性的重要性较大，且与感官审评特征描述结果相一致；当采用优选出的9个重要性较大的特征及决策数棵数为500时，建立的模型性能最优，模型总体判别率为95.75%，Kappa系数为0.933，OOB误差为5%，较SVM模型分别提高了3.5%，0.066，优选的9个重要性较大的图像特征与感官审评特征描述相一致。研究表明：利用随机森林方法筛选出对茶叶外形特征属性贡献最大的少数几个特征建立模型，模型性能就能达到很好的识别效果，模型得到简化，同时模型精度和稳定性都高于其他方法。     

Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System and a Multilayer Perceptron Model Trained with Grey Wolf Optimizer for Predicting Solar Diffuse Fraction

The accurate prediction of the solar diffuse fraction (DF), sometimes called the diffuse ratio, is an important topic for solar energy research. In the present study, the current state of Diffuse irradiance research is discussed and then three robust, machine learning (ML) models are examined using a large dataset (almost eight years) of hourly readings from Almeria, Spain. The ML models used herein, are a hybrid adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), a single multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and a hybrid multi-layer perceptron grey wolf optimizer (MLP-GWO). These models were evaluated for their predictive precision, using various solar and DF irradiance data, from Spain. The results were then evaluated using frequently used evaluation criteria, the mean absolute error (MAE), mean error (ME) and the root mean square error (RMSE). The results showed that the MLP-GWO model, followed by the ANFIS model, provided a higher performance in both the training and the testing procedures.     

不同声音偏好的游客声景观主观评价差异——以丽江大研古镇为例*

古镇作为集自然景观与人文景观一体的景区，具有丰富的声音类型。本研究以大研古镇为例，通过实地调研探究不同声音偏好的游客对古镇声景观的主观评价差异。基于游客的声音偏好，将游客分为偏爱自然声和偏爱人工声两大类。通过因子分析提取游客声景观主观评价的5个主因子：大小、音质、效价、偏好和唤醒。进一步分析发现，这5个因子具有一定的层级性，其中从大小到唤醒代表声景观评价从声音的物理属性向声音的联想评价逐级提升。其中在低层级评价(大小、音质)中，偏好自然声的游客和偏好人工声的游客无显著差异，低层级评价具有稳定性；而在高层级评价(效价、偏好和唤醒)中，偏好人工声的游客更关注古镇声景观的淳朴性和遗产性。因此，游客对声景观的主观评价可视为一种指标，判断景区声景所处的评价阶段，从而为景区声景观改善提供更有针对性的建议。     

Evaluation of alumina slurry dispersion by nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation as a comparison to conventional dispersion evaluation methods

In this paper, we evaluated the particle dispersion degree of alumina slurry containing a dispersant by solvent nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation and compared it with conventional dispersion evaluation methods such as viscosity, particle size, and sedimentation height measurements. The dispersion of slurry was evaluated via numerical analysis of the transverse relaxation time (T₂). The effect of the changes in different parameters of the experiment in terms of milling time, solid loading, and dispersant amount was investigated by NMR relaxation as well as conventional methods. The results of NMR relaxation measurements revealed that T₂ correlates well with other dispersion evaluation methods; thus, it is an efficient technique to evaluate the dispersion of alumina slurry, specifically, when studying the effect of the change in milling time and dispersion amount.
